That was an exciting class (for the obvious and not so obvious reasons). I hope everyone made it home ok and that they are all safe and sound now. I made it home 10 minutes before the last storm.
I was just (and still am) amazed at how inept I was at giving tests. This class has opened my eyes SO much this past weekend. I am now obsessing over the test I am giving on Friday to my students. This all makes so much PRACTICAL sense to me and I wonder why I didn't get it before now (well, I know, it's because I didn't have Dr. Burns!) I am in my 3rd year of teaching and finally feel like I just *might* be "getting it". There is so much more I have to learn but I'm finally feeling a little more comfortable. A lot of that has been since Saturday. It was definately an eye opening experience!
I like you enjoyed Saturdays clss concerning tests.
ReplyDeleteIt was (at least for me) one of the most practical classes that NTI has offered.
I can teach and I can entertain - however, I am terrible at the administrative aspects of teaching. Tests are suppose to measure whether are students are learning or not - so I guess I better master at least this administrative skill.
